News

Reimer made 46 saves during Thursday's 3-0 win over Boston.

Impact

This was a dominant showing from the veteran, and with consecutive wins and just one goal allowed on 71 shots, Reimer can be viewed as a potential streaming option moving forward. He's unlikely to receive many starts, though. The Panthers are trying to chase down a playoff berth, and Roberto Luongo is locked into a starter's workload.

News

Reimer will guard the home goal Thursday against the Bruins, Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site reports.

Impact

Reimer last started between the pipes March 2 against the Sabres, stopping 24 of the 25 pucks he faced in a winning effort. After an extended layoff, he will finally receive another opportunity Friday but will have to stave off shots from a Bruins club averaging 3.19 goals per game at home this season.

News

Reimer saved 24 of 25 shots during Friday's 4-1 win over Buffalo.

Impact

While Reimer entered with an underwhelming .905 save percentage and 3.22 GAA for the campaign, this was a layup spot. Buffalo was without top-scorer Jack Eichel (ankle) and already had road struggles with just 2.44 goals per 60 minutes for the campaign away from KeyBank Center. It's probably wise not to overreact to Friday's strong showing, but Reimer definitely warrants a look in upcoming favorable matchups when receiving the starting nod.

News

Reimer is slated to start Friday's clash with the Sabres, Matthew DeFranks of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Impact

Reimer will square off with the league's second most inept offense (2.40 goals per game). Friday's tilt could be one of the last remaining appearances for the backup this year, as Florida has just three more back-to-backs following this one. However, if the Panthers get to a point where they are out of the wild-card hunt, coach Bob Boughner could decide to split the duties between Reimer and Roberto Luongo.

News

Reimer coughed up seven goals on 34 shots in Sunday's 7-2 road loss to the Jets.

Impact

One would think that Reimer wouldn't have been permitted to finish the game under ordinary circumstances, but the Panthers were playing for the second time in as many days and Roberto Luongo -- who returned from a groin injury Saturday -- evidently wasn't ready to go back-to-back. Reimer has endured plenty of hits and misses this season, but he may have earned the trust of fantasy owners by posting an 11-6-2 record and .920 save percentage in 20 games as a stop-gap option for Luongo when he was tending to his affliction.

News

Reimer will guard the cage in Sunday's tilt against Winnipeg, Doug Plagens of the Panthers' radio network reports.

Impact

Although Reimer has collected wins in his last two starts, they haven't necessarily been good outings, as he only stopped 61 of the 69 shots thrown on net during the span. Things won't get any easier for the 29-year-old against the potent Winnipeg attack, which averages 3.22 goals per game (sixth best in the NHL) and produces 31.9 shots per game, and Reimer will likely need to elevate his game in order to receive his third straight win.

News

Reimer turned aside 34 of the Canucks' 37 shots on goal, ultimately escaping with a 4-3 win over Vancouver on Wednesday.

Impact

This was an average performance from Reimer: better than it's been in a few recent showings, but still not a great showing. When Roberto Luongo (lower body) returns from injury, Reimer probably wouldn't have much opportunity anyway.

News

Reimer will guard the cage in Wednesday's road game against the Canucks, Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site reports.

Impact

Reimer was shaky in his return from injury Monday against the Oilers, surrendering five goals on 32 shots, but he ultimately did enough to pick up his 14th victory of the campaign due to fantastic goal support from his teammates. The 29-year-old netminder will look to bounce back from that sub-par performance and pick up a second straight win in a favorable road matchup with a Canucks club that's 10-14-3 at home this season.

News

Reimer allowed five goals on 32 shots during Monday's 7-5 win over Edmonton.

Impact

This turned into a track meet, and one of Edmonton's goals was on a penalty shot, so it's difficult to be too critical of Reimer in his return to action Monday. After all, his last start was Jan. 23. The veteran sports a 14-12-5 record, .909 save percentage and 3.10 GAA for the campaign, and with Roberto Luongo (lower body) back at practice, Reimer's fantasy upside is likely to become quite limited sooner than later.

News

Reimer, who was recently activated off injured reserve, will be the road starter against the Oilers on Monday.

Impact

This will be Reimer's first start after missing six games with a groin injury. The 29-year-old has had a rough season, as he's sporting a 3.04 GAA and a .911 save percentage through 32 outings. The Oilers have only scored 2.78 goals per game at home, 24th in the NHL, but it will be interesting to see how Reimer looks in his return to action.
